Letterform structure
of Dashed Lined Ruled Tracing.
Dashed Lined Ruled Tracing is a two-cut handwriting set in which the letters are built as dashed outlines and the companion page carries ruled guides: a two-line version sets the x-height with a baseline and waist rule, and a three-line version adds the descender rule. The dashes are the traceable skeleton and the rules are the teaching structure, so the pair only works at page size. It needs roughly 30 mm for the dashes and the rules to read, and it is best in one grey on white for the outline with a soft blue rule, never in heavy colour.

Handwriting-practice notebook, cover and insert
A ruled tracing set is the product itself, so a cover in it reads as a practice book rather than a generic stationery brand. The dashed letters hold at 34 mm, and one grey plus one soft blue prints the cover and the inside insert in a single pass.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Cover 148 x 210 mm, word 34 mm with 8 mm rule clearance, 15 mm margins. Insert 148 x 210 mm, three-line rule at 8 mm spacing. Card 85 x 55 mm, word 14 mm, 5 mm margins.
Pre-production check
Printed at 8 mm rule spacing the dashed outline fills on copier stock and the child cannot see the guide through the letter. Keep the rules at 10 mm and the outline light, and photocopy one page at 80 percent before the run.
Guest-book page, advice card and name card
A tracing skeleton used at adult scale reads as a hand-ruled page rather than a printed card, which is what a relaxed wedding guest book wants. The dashes hold at 28 mm, and one grey ink prints the pages and the advice cards in one order.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Guest book page 210 x 148 mm, word 30 mm with 8 mm rule clearance, 15 mm margins. Advice card 148 x 105 mm, header 18 mm, lines 9 mm. Name card 105 x 75 mm, name 20 mm, 5 mm margins.
Pre-production check
On a 148 x 105 mm advice card the 9 mm ruling is too tight for adult handwriting and guests write across two lines. Set the ruling at 12 mm, and print one card before the set.
Literacy display, letter card and certificate
A ruled tracing set gives a literacy wall a display that matches the worksheets underneath, which is what a primary teacher wants. The dashed letters hold at 140 mm, and one grey print covers the display and a whole class set of letter cards.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Display 1200 x 400 mm, letters 140 mm with 12 mm rule clearance, 20 mm margins. Letter card 105 x 148 mm, letter 60 mm, two-line rule. Certificate A5 landscape, word 30 mm, 12 mm margins.
Pre-production check
At 140 mm on the wall the dashed outline reads as a solid line and the display loses the traceable quality. Print the display from the light cut and keep the heavy dashes for cards, then check one panel on the wall.
